DALI Broadcast
DALI broadcast is the simplest form of control for a room or specific area when no grouping of lights is required.
Various options of broadcast controllers can control from 1 to 100 drivers on a single DALI line/universe. This allows ‘group’ control via a rotary switch, push button, scene control, or similar.
No Commissioning Required – DALI Broadcast
A DALI broadcast controller operates on a single DALI line or universe. This line connects to all the DALI drivers (such as LED drivers or ballasts) within the controlled area, and all connected drivers/ballasts operate as one.
With DALI Broadcast, as no individual addressing is possible, no on-site commissioning is needed. Additionally if a driver needs replacing at a later date, again, no programming/commissioning will be necessary. It is a straight forward hardware replacement.
Simple DALI Solution
Controlling DALI light fittings through DALI broadcast provides a very simple yet basic level of control. Such a solution could be compared to 1-10v or DSI controls, which have more recently been superseded by DALI systems. More info on DALI groups and scenes.
